I have gotten into the habit of seeing how much shipping is before I even read the item description...=_= A lot of times sellers will ask for a lot for the shipping cost, and it makes me wonder why. Even priority mail shipping with confirmation shouldn't cost over $10 for a small item. I generally won't bid if I feel I might be getting ripped off. And when I sell things, I always make sure to give potential buyers a very fair shipping rate. No need to pay more than needed for something like shipping, right? Considering sometimes, you are trying to get a good bargain for something, but then the shipping cost is higher than usual for an item of that size. Sure it's going to cost more to ship a heavy item than a small one, it's always been that way. But mostly I bid on small plush dolls that don't even weigh a pound...so when I see "$10.00 shipping" I pretty much have to turn the other way and keep looking...
